However, I observed that all frames are dropped. Moreover, set_mtu function is not implemented on i40e PMD. > testpmd --log-level 8 --huge-dir=/mnt/huge -n 4 -l 2,18 --socket-mem 1024,1024 -w 0000:02:00.0 -w 0000:02:00.2 -- -i --nb-cores=1 --nb-ports=2 --total-num-mbufs=65536 ============= Configuration ============= +-----------+ +-------------+ | | | | | tgen | | | | +----------+ port 0 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +----------+ port 1 | | | | | +-----------+ +-------------+ DPDK: DPDK-v2.2 ========== MTU = 1500 ========== Packet sent from a tgen > p = Ether / IP / UDP / Raw(MTU + HDR(Ethernet)- HDR(IP) - HDR(UDP)) > len(p) = 1514 testpmd> start PMD: i40e_rxd_to_vlan_tci(): Mbuf vlan_tci: 0, vlan_tci_outer: 0 testpmd> stop Telling cores to stop...

Does a mtu_set function will be developed soon in order to support jumbo frame ? Regards, -- Julien MEUNIER 6WIND
